I have a subfile with an option F8 to clear all the records. When F8 is taken, I will clear all the fields and will update the SFL record format. After F8, if an enter is taken, I want to update the file with the blank values. But the problem is since am not typing anything on to the subfile, the Readc is not reading any records when an enter is pressed. Please advice,

When you write a blank subfile record (or write any subfile record), you can write it with the SFLNXTCHG (Subfile Next Changed) attribute enabled. That will cause that record to be read by the next get-next-changed operation even if the user did not make a change. It would have to always be on for every blank record if I understand correctly, so it seems a little pointless. You might as well just use a straight READ and skip testing for changes. -- Tom
